Ouch.  There's some irony.  Might be worth doing memset(&mem, -1, sizeof(mem))
though as '0' is a valid file descriptor and a valid file offset.

Definitely needed.  There's a very real bug here.  But rather than duplicate flags
checking or plumb @ioctl all the way to __kvm_set_memory_region(), now that we
have the fancy guard(mutex) and there are no internal calls to kvm_set_memory_region(),
what if we:

  1. Acquire/release slots_lock in __kvm_set_memory_region()
  2. Call kvm_set_memory_region() from x86 code for the internal memslots
  3. Disallow *any* flags for internal memslots
  4. Open code check_memory_region_flags in kvm_vm_ioctl_set_memory_region()
  5. Pass @ioctl to kvm_vm_ioctl_set_memory_region() and allow KVM_MEM_PRIVATE
     only for KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION2

E.g. this over ~5 patches
